The Milei effect: Walmart, eBay and Amazon could return to Argentina
The president-elect of the South American country expressed his strong support for lowering taxes, reducing regulations and strengthening legal security.
The imminence of Javier Milei has already begun to generate expectations regarding Argentina's economy. His rhetoric in favor of lowering taxes, reducing regulations and strengthening legal security began to seduce some businessmen who have already confirmed their return to Argentina. There is even talk that Amazon could land in the country, which the president-elect shared on social media.
The information came from the journalist Eduardo Menoni, who communicated early with his followers to announce the arrival of important companies on Argentine soil after the change of government that will take place on December 10.
"Some of the companies that plan to return to Argentina to lay foundations after Javier Milei assumes the presidency are: Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Falabella, Hasbro," he wrote on his X account, formerly Twitter.
Not content with this, he specifically mentioned Amazon as the one that would be closest to arriving. Despite the importance of the information, the most significant thing was that Milei himself reposted the publication about Amazon's arrival in Argentina.
The businessman who has already returned: "I am convinced that the future of Argentina with a liberal government is immense"
Mauro Stendel, a businessman based until now in Miami and who gained public notoriety when he sent 256 shovels to congressmen in the Argentine Congress, has already landed in Argentina and plans to generate work sooner rather than later.
"I promised that if he won, I was going to return to the country to bet on him. I do it because I am convinced that the future of Argentina with a liberal government is immense. And I am convinced that if they lower taxes, if they take the foot out of the heads of those of us who really work and provide jobs, there is no ceiling," he told Infobae and then encouraged his colleagues to follow in his footsteps.
"Now I want everyone to come back. I created a hashtag on Twitter so that everyone who, like me, had to go abroad in search of opportunities. I am convinced that without Kirchnerism Argentina has no roof. But for that we need those who work and invest to believe again," he added.
Finally, he stressed that his search for personnel would begin soon. "I arrived a while ago in the morning and we are already looking for people to join the NUM team. And obviously continue educating those who want to work and recover the future," Stendel concluded.
